Today, the Supreme Court eliminated the federal constitutional protection of abortion rights set by Roe v. Wade and gave the authority to decide abortion rights to individual states. This decision threatens the lives of millions who will seek an abortion, especially Black, Indigenous, and people of color, and people working to make ends meet. Let’s fight back.

Call your senator to enact the will of the people - end the filibuster to codify the fundamental right to abortion.

Call Your Senator

When the decision was leaked in May, the Alliance Network demanded elected leaders take action to protect protect abortion access. And it is the filibuster that stands in the way of progress. Senate Republicans have already used this 'Jim Crow relic' to block critical voting rights legislation.

Call (202) 224-3121 today and tell your legislators to end the filibuster in order to codify our rights to an abortion.

Support Alliance Network Orgs

Youth organizers in the Alliance Network from New Era Colorado, Loud Light, Mississippi Votes and more are fighting to protect abortion access. Support Alliance Network organizations, so we can continue to protect our right to life-saving healthcare.

Share with your Network

Spread the word with your own network that there is still work to be done! Visit the Alliance blog for a deeper dive into how abortion access contributes to safer, healthier communities, and what you can do to protect the right to an abortion.

Last month, Alliance Network leaders from Mississippi Votes, New Era Colorado, and Loud Light spoke with NPR host Juana Summers about how young people will take action in a world without the protections of Roe and why we need our elected officials to take action now.

Research and stories from our community tell us that limiting abortion access will severely affect our mental health.

Abortion is healthcare. And having access to abortion is critical to the mental health of our communities. We deserve the right to make choices about our bodies

Together, we can pressure our elected officials to side with the majority of Americans who believe that abortion access is a human right. Call your senator, support youth organizers, and donate to abortion funds. It’s time to fight back. 

In solidarity,
